A letter from me to you
It's been 2.5 years since we began this journey together, and I'd like to stop and thank you for your support.
Since this publication began in September 2020, 126 issues have been published and sent to 2427 subscribers.
Most months, there have been 3+ issues.
Some had double that.
Some only had 1.
Thanks for sticking with me as I dial in the content and cadence of this effort to share insights and advice from inside the trenches of cannabis.
Recently, I've been working to hone in on the intent of these pieces and what value they offer you.
We've danced around quite a few topics in these past few years. Crypto, Cannabis Investments, Grow Advice, Personal Development, and Perspectives on Cannabis.
Future issues Letters From The Grow will exclusively focus on:
Perspectives on Cannabis from a Hobby Grower:Â I grow, extract, smoke, dab, and work in the trenches of this ever-changing space; these are my takes.
Hobby Grow: Helping First Time Growers Get Started, and helping Hobby Growers Get Better; These are the lessons I've learned along the way.
Within these two categories, we will explore a variety of tips, advice, mistakes, lessons learned, and predictions on where we are headed. If you've got a specific question or topic you'd like to see covered, please don't hesitate to reply to this email and let me know!
As we move forward together, I want to be crystal clear on what you can expect from me.
